We are pleased to support the work of Road to Roots, which offers high schools students structured travel and study opportunities to engage with the Islamic intellectual and artistic traditions.

This year’s program will take students to five regions in Andalusia, where they will explore historical and cultural landmarks through academic lectures, reading, guided reflections, and discussions.

The grant award will provide participants access to an enriched educational experience—structured learning environments in Cordoba and Granada, hands-on workshops in the traditional arts, and access to heritage exhibits.

These experiences will help students visualize the depth and beauty of this tradition, and, we hope, inspire them to further pursue its study and development.
